Makes sense and I think that creates a different dynamic and community. You can delete emails by just sending $DELETEME.

There are more commands available in https://hackerspring.com/faq

It was considered to do 'unlisted' posts, but in the end, what's a blog if it's not for worldwide publication?

Im confused - so my collection of posts is contained under "category +me"

Does it post inline images from within the body of the email? I must have missed that part.

And I didnt say not available to the world - I said not intermingled among everyone elses posts. That is a forum.

By your definition, HN would be a blog - as I can post to HN, and it just shows up under /new I just happen to be the poster...

Am I missing something?

Yes

Yes! You can include anything you can with HTML and e-mail. You can even include a .js or .css file!

With Hacker Spring, it's both a blog and an aggregator. HN can be used as a blog by doing a text post! :-). Hacker Spring just has a bit more features to customize your site since it's fully geared toward this.

Does that still fit with the view that this is suitable for “Grandpa and Grandma” if it exposes one’s email address? Shouldn’t a service intended for non-technical audiences take more care in not exposing the users by default?
